writers block

If you are a writer, you know that sometimes you just find yourself putting things off. The longer you go between your last piece and the next, the more difficult it can be to open up a blank file and get cracking. This has happened to me numerous times, and it can be frustrating. You know that once you start, it won’t be that bad. It’s the getting started that is the hard part.

With that in mind, I’ve put together some ways that I’ve overcome this writer’s block/procrastination/whatever you want to call it in the past and present (and likely in the future). If you’ve been overthinking the process of writing and just want to get down to it, these ideas may help.
